Razer Wolverine V3 Pro Wireless Gaming Controller: Licensed for Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC - 6 Remappable Buttons - Fast Triggers - Customizable Thumbsticks - Wired Tournament Mode - BlackECOLOGO

I just got this controller yesterday, and I have only played a couple of hours with it but it is by FAR the best controller I have ever used. For many years I used regular Xbox controllers. Then I bought a Elite 2 and have been using it for a while - I thought it was pretty good until yesterday.Everything about this controller screams high quality, and the feel of the button presses is completely different and very nice. The Hall Effect Thumb sticks are awesome and should last a long time. The four buttons on the back and the 2 claw buttons on top will make this even more fun to use.I haven't programmed any buttons yet or even registered it, just played a game and I truly love this Razer controller.I am not a pro gamer (I am almost 70!) but I can see why they would use this controller. I highly recommend it.

I was, at first, disappointed that Razer controller app wouldn't let me remap the buttons to keyboard inputs and only to controller buttons. Like, why would I want 7 a-buttons or 4 x-buttons and 3 y-buttons? It was nonsensical.However, Razer recently released a firmware update which makes the controller synapse-compatible, so I'm ready to commit to saying that I love this controller! I especially like the onboard memory and multiple profiles so it works perfectly without synapse running (after using synapse to remap the buttons, obv).The only two things I really hope Razer adds in a future update is macro support and razer hypershift, which don't work for this device like they do for (all?) Razer mice and Razer keyboards. That would fully unleash the power of this device. Also maybe let me remap all the buttons and change left stick to wasd and right stick to mouse? Just a thought...Until then, I'm forced to use 3rd party software to get those features. reWASD (not free) has those features and works well with this device. The additional buttons are detected as a "wolverine v3 device" which i tell it to recognize as a keyboard. So set the addition bumper buttons to, for example, 1 and 2 in synapse, and then remap 1 and 2 on the "Wolverine v3 keyboard" in reWASD to your combo or your "shift to layer _". Then, you have a lot more customization options. 1 and 2 continue to function as normal when it receives those input from any keyboard other than " wolverine v3 keyboard", so no worries there. Also, the regular buttons are recognized as an "Xbox 360" controller, so just group that with the "wolverine v3 keyboard". Don't forget to mute the remapped buttons. That way, it only sends the remapped input and not both the remapped input and the native input. Unless, that's what you want it to do... Then, go crazyThank you Razer, for fixing your device. It makes it 100x more useful. I doubt you read these, but add those 2 (maybe 3) features, save me the trouble of working around your lack of customization, and you would have a PERFECT controller. But I'm SO happy you fixed the bulk of the problem, that I'm still giving you 5 stars.

Ok, Out of the box I immediately set deadzones to zero. Upon checking found there is an inherent centering issue that causes heavy drift reading with no way to recalibrate.Pros:Feel of buttons are great, tactile, responsive, good placement. The “feel” of the controller is one of the bests. The trigger locks to enable a mouse click tactile pull is satisfying to say the least. All these features are great enough for me to over look other features not given at this price range ie - tension adjustment, full button mapping, lackluster app interface, polling rate to name a few.Major con:However, having out of box centering issues this high is just kind of a hard one to look over. All HE sticks do have centering performance concerns. I just wish this would center closer to 0,0 (I know it’s impossible to get true 0,0 reading). But no matter what I do, direction I flick it, it re-centers back to these values. I’d have to widen the dead zones, sacrificing a substantial amount responsiveness which defeats the purpose of buying a performance controller. Maybe I’ll try to exchange and hope I get something better, but if it’s worse, it’s a full refund. Will update review if I do. But not to hopeful as more research, this is a more common than a one off situation.UPDATE: GOT A NEW REPLACEMENT (3.5-3.9 Stars max)Firmware updater released on PC. But now can be updated on Xbox App however the app sucks. (Edit 2025 new update no longer supports Xbox app firmware update must use pc anpp again..wtf tired of this company) Upon launching app a progress bar starts loading a percentage w/ the message do not unplug. No indication it’s updating. Apparently it did. But while I couldn’t verify if it’s the latest firmware. I already lost confidence in the software(& probably the Razer brand too) and updated through PC anyway. Major gripe about the PC updater: it doesn’t confirm if you already have the latest firmware. It just flashes and installs… is this freeware from github or a hardware gaming company w a $200 controller? SmhPros: quality weight and feel, rgb(if you even care for this?), tactile mouse click triggers, a really decent clicky gated d-pad (better than most), a lot of extra decently placed buttons that feel good, adjustable haptic, multiple profile config saves, easy quick instant button mapping. Carrying case.Cons: app, firmware update required, updated app didn’t include a calibration option, Outdated 2020 Hall Effect tech used in 2024 when newer VRS is more economical, durable, accurate, and energy efficient. No adjustable tension for a $200 price tag. Only two extra plastic thumb sticks, why not just throw in two identical pairs? They’re plastic anyways. You still need a dongle. Face buttons could feel “mushy” to some, And I could be wrong, but I don’t think it’s Bluetooth as they advertise. Size, if only it was a couple centimeters larger it would probably rest perfectly in most hands. It’s not switch pro small but with back paddle placement it can be noticeable.Biggest con. Razer as a company is incompetent. Do not buy if you do not have a windows pc. Razer is company who creates an Xbox controller with an Xbox app, but does not push firmware updates through the Xbox. You have to download a separate software on a PC then update firmware through there cuz if you don’t, it won’t allow you to use the Xbox app! This is after a year of use, and while hardware is ok, I’ve grown more tired with this company as it’s a controller with inconveniences that start to pile up which is no excuse at this price range. Save your money.

El producto se siente de muy buena calidad, los botones una belleza, configurarlos un dilema, casi los devuelvo porque no lograba hacerlos funcionar pero una vez puedes hacerlo y actualizarlos han ido perfectos, llevo muy poco con ellos pero el precio me parece alto creo q me iría por el alambrico pero si tienes el dinero me parece muy buen producto, mejor que el cyclon 2 y el 8bit, pero es mucho más caro
